25.01.2022 A lovely little daily meditation . Happy Thursday everyone - may it be filled with hope, peace and smiles.

24.01.2022 I know I have been very quiet lately, thanks to everyone for your patience and enquiries. I'm all over my requirements for re-opening ..... just trying to find a balance and conquer life's juggling act! . I'll be back super soon Moira

24.01.2022 I have been hard at work on preparing for my return to practice in these COVID times. Things will be a little different when I am back up and running because life has changed for us all. As always my primary focus is the health and safety of my clients, my family and myself. I am consistently monitoring and following any changes to the protocols and procedures of my industry due to COVID. The resources I am using are primarily coming from Association of Massage Therapists, ...Massage Training Australia and Work Safe Australia. I am also developing my massage techniques, skills and knowledge. With a focus to myofascial applications, stretching and a holistic body approach to injures / imbalances. Busy, busy, busy..... I will advise of my opening date when I feel 100% ready to go. Stay healthy, Moira

24.01.2022 Massage. Reiki. Breathe.

24.01.2022 My order of Gift Vouchers has arrived!!! Still not too late to get the best present ever for a loved one for Christmas

24.01.2022 I am loving my current studies on the science of stretching and the relationship between stretching, myo-fascia and the other systems in the body.

23.01.2022 I made the decision across last weekend to close for 2 weeks to help flatten the curve. I cannot observe the recommended social distancing due to the nature of my work. Look after each other especially the vulnerable members of the community. At this point I will reassess in a fortnight. Stay healthy everyone.

23.01.2022 I will be running an additional Pilates class at Orbost Neighborhood House. Beginning on Thurs 6th September, I will have a 9:30am session (as well as Weds 4pm). Please call me directly to discuss and book your mat Thanks, Moira 0417 116 299.

23.01.2022 Why not book a massage for the week before the Triathalon or the week post event. Your body will love you for it Moira 0417 116 299

22.01.2022 Keep moving, so much easier in this beautiful weather The date of my return to massage practice is still not yet set. I can tell you though that I can't wait!!! (I know my return can only happen after home schooling finishes). Moira

22.01.2022 A lot of people have been asking about my return to practice, my answer is still "I don't really know". When I feel the time is right for my individual clinic, my family circumstances and circumstances surrounding COVID - 19, I will be back up and running with bells on!!! Moira (check out vid below)

22.01.2022 I am EXCITED knowing that my return to practice is just around the corner....but just not quite yet. I need a little time to: - finish redecorating my massage room - complete a couple of courses - rejig our working from home dynamics - ensure my COVID Safe plan is accurate ... AND as a home schooling Mum - I need a wee rest over the holidays too . See you early term 4, full of beans and ready to go! Happy Days, Moira See more

20.01.2022 Marlo Massage Therapy is back on track!!! Apologies for very little FB activity and slow replies to messages. I have had a busy few months focusing on running my 1st half marathon!!! What a great experience! I feel a great amount of appreciation that my body is fit and healthy and that I was able to achieve such a huge personal goal for myself. The body is an amazing machine - Look after it, it's the only one you have! Happy, healthy days, Moira

17.01.2022 It was my hope to be back working again this week (see pic in comments) . Instead, I have decided to hold off again due to the spike in numbers in Vic. I will monitor closely where community transmissions are occurring and just wait and see for a wee while longer . I feel I am prepared in all other areas of my new protocols regarding re-opening, so let's just hope things in Vic get under control again ASAP

09.01.2022 Just because these are 2 of my favorite things ever

08.01.2022 PLANTAR FASCIITIS SELF-TREATMENT Regular, gentle stretching of your Achilles tendon and plantar fascia may help to ease your symptoms. This is because most pe...ople with plantar fasciitis have a slight tightness of their Achilles tendon. If this is the case, it tends to pull at the back of your heel and has a knock-on effect of keeping your plantar fascia tight. Also, when you are asleep overnight, your plantar fascia tends to tighten up (which is why it is usually most painful first thing in the morning). The aim of these exercises is to loosen up the tendons and fascia gently above and below your heel. 1. Soleus Stretch With both knees apart and your toes facing forward, lean into the wall until you feel the stretch in your lower calf. Hold for 30 seconds and repeat 3 times. 2. Step Stretch Stand with your toes on a step and your heels off the edge. Slowly lower your heels down, hold for 15 seconds, and then lift your heels to their starting position. You can either do both feet at the same time, or one foot at a time. Repeat five times. 3. Roll Stretch Using a mini roll, roll it back and forth from your toes to your heels. Alternatively you can use a tennis ball or a glass bottle. 4. Plantar Fascia Massage Using two fingers, apply small circular friction to any tight knots or lumps in the plantar fascia. The pressure should be deep, but not so much that you tighten up with pain. 5. Elastic Strap Stretch Sit on the floor with your legs straight in from of you. Take a stretch strap and place it around your toes. Gently pull the strap towards you. Hold for 15-30 seconds, then release. Repeat 3 times. 6. Toe Stretch Place just toes up on the wall with the ball of the foot and heel on the ground. Lean into the wall slowly until stretch is felt. Hold for 30 seconds and repeat 3 times. Can plantar fasciitis be prevented? There are certain things that you can do to try to prevent plantar fasciitis, especially if you have had it before. These include: Regularly changing training shoes used for running or walking Wearing shoes with good cushioning in the heels and good arch support Losing weight if you are overweight Regularly stretching the plantar fascia and Achilles tendon, especially before exercise Avoiding exercising on hard surfaces

07.01.2022 Yesterday I caught up with Bevil Lunson at his Orbost charity "The Food Pantry" to donate funds for him to distribute to our local community after fires. On returning to town after our first close fire event, I wanted to help everyone but didn't know where to start. I decided to put aside a portion of each one hour massage (+90 and 120min) for the last month to go to him and his team to distribute as they see fit. He runs a wonderful charity and I appreciate the work of al...l involved. "Thank you Bevil and a BIG thanks to all my Marlo Massage Therapy peeps" Moira See more
